Human Intelligence (HUMINT) is a vital intelligence stream that supports Government's commitment to addressing the harms caused by the importation of illicit drugs, revenue fraud (illegal Tobacco) and other cross-border offences.

As part of New Zealand Customs Service, the Human Source Unit (HSU) manages covert relationships to gather intelligence that helps us understand and target cross-border crime. People skills are essential to this work because we gather our information through the relationships we form and the trust that we build.

This role has a variety of functions from identifying potential human sources through to supporting and/or managing sources and collecting intelligence. This role is Auckland based.

**About this role| Mō tēnei tūranga mahi**

We're looking for someone who is passionate about protecting our border by meeting a range of contacts and sources to produce high impact intelligence. We target the people and organisations behind illicit activity, this role therefore requires a high level of resilience and proactivity along with a strong ability to manage relationships.

- Strong communication skills, verbal and written with the ability to appeal to a wide audience.
- A strong ability for self-reflection and be open to learning new skills.
- Ability to obtain and maintain a Top Secret* level security clearance.

You will need to demonstrate a growth mind-set in order to become a HUMINT practitioner and gain a deep understanding of risk within HUMINT collection operations.

Additionally, you will need to remain calm and composed under pressure and adapt quickly and easily to change. You will need to be able to comfortably fit in with a wide range, and different types of people, building and managing positive, open relationships as well as having sound judgement, which you'll use to handle sensitive information and situations.

- Must have a clear Police record and be able to obtain an Organisational Security clearance.

- (*) If you are a New Zealand Citizen or New Zealand Permanent Resident who has resided in New Zealand for the last 10 years but have been absent from New Zealand for periods of 6-9 months within the past 10 years, preferably in one or more of the following countries: either Australia, Canada, UK or the USA then you may still meet the requirements for a 'secret' clearance. You will be required to provide overseas Police certificates for these periods spent outside of New Zealand._
- (**) The physical test, which is part of the recruitment process, measures you against average levels of fitness for your age and gender. You will need to pass the Beep Test to 'average' level (you can find out more about the Beep test online) and some strength based tests._
